It looks like going into help as you describe here will give me what I
was looking for. Thanks. Still don't understand why the Help from inside
CALC didn't do the same.Still don't understand why there is no
standalone document for the OOo Basic language. I guess everyone else is
just too smart to need one so one wasn't created. Old dumb guys like me
will just have to do the best we can. Thanks again. BTW, still don't
know how to keep something going in the same thread, or am I doing it
right by just replying to this?

Thanks to the people who sent me links. Have checked them all out.
Still have not found a Basic language (syntax, etc.) document for OOo.
Maybe there isn't one? One of the links pointed me to Sun. Do I really
need to get the STAR8 documentation? Different question -- I would
have liked to have added this to the original thread but couldn't
figure out to do that, can someone explain (in small words) how to do
that?
Not quite sure what you are looking for but the StarBasic doc from Sun
is a good one. However, I am puzzled that the built-in Help is not
adequate for anyone even somewhat familiar with the BASIC language. If
case you missed this, you can access it by either clicking Help >
Contents or pressing F1 and selecting the Contents tab and then
selecting "Macros and Programming" from the menu.
If you are coming from VBA, you might find
http://documentation.openoffice.org/HOW_TO/various_topics/VbaStarBasicXref.pdf
and its ancillary examples useful. In the same section you will also
find Andrew Pitonyak's docs for getting deep into programming.
Hope this helps.
